"Damn Caotai."

"Damn you, if Cao Tai hadn't messed up, those censors wouldn't have impeached us."

Zhu Zhen was also cursing.

The whole thing was caused by Cao Tai from the beginning.

If the Cao family hadn't been daring, no censor would have thought of them. The most important thing is that the entire Cao family was taken away by the Jin Yiwei. Even if they wanted to take revenge, they couldn't find their enemies.

Zhu Zhen felt unhappy!

Zhu Mengjiong said: "Dad, what should we do next? Do we really want to give away all the things in our house?"

When he mentioned this matter, Zhu Zhen's heart was bleeding, and he said sadly: "If I don't send him out, will he be hung up and beaten by your grandpa Huang? We have reached this point, and it is impossible not to send him away, alas!"

He has accumulated so many years of hard work in Wuchang. If he says he doesn't have it, he won't have it. Who can accept it?
"It's all the damn Cao family!"

If the Cao family is still there, Zhu Zhen will definitely try his best to kill them all.

And those two censors!
He gritted his teeth, but he did not dare to touch Shen Qian and the two of them. If they moved now, the entire court would know that it was their vassal king who had done it, and Lao Zhu would not let the vassal prince go so easily.

Frustrated for sure.

But there was no way to vent this grievance.

"Let's make some arrangements. I'm going to see your fifth uncle tomorrow!"

Zhu Zhen felt that he had to discuss it with Zhu Zhen.

I am afraid that after this incident, Lao Zhu will not do anything, but Zhu Xuan is very likely to be even more unhappy with them. If he wants to take action against them, the current vassal alliance cannot be used, and it will be difficult for them to resist.

"Father, you are like this, you should have a good rest!"

Zhu Mengjiong said.

Zhu Zhen said: "When I fought in the past, my body was full of enemy arrows, and I didn't even think about resting. Now that I'm injured, I'm afraid of it. Please arrange it for me!"

Seeing this, Zhu Mengjiong had no choice but to agree.

At this time, the vassal kings were actually as scared as Zhu Zhen.

They were thinking that everything would be fine on Lao Zhu's side, but not necessarily on Zhu Xuan's side. They were so worried that they couldn't even sleep well.

Early the next morning.

Zhu Zhen ignored his injuries and went directly to Zhu Zhen's palace.

But as soon as he got outside, he saw Zhu Ru was about to go out.

"Lao Liu, I was just going to find you."

Zhu Rui said: "Since you are here, it's just right for us to go and see Brother Seventeen. He usually has the most evil ideas. Let's go see if he has any ideas!"

Thinking that Zhu Quan could clean up all the charges of rebellion except for embezzlement of military pay, Zhu Zhen felt that it made sense. The seventeenth brother was usually more shrewd and had to consult with him.

So, the two of them, regardless of the pain on their bodies, went directly to Prince Ning's mansion.

At this time, Zhu Quan's head was wrapped, as was his buttocks. He was lying on the soft couch, looking like he was seriously injured and unable to see guests.

"Brother Seventeen, stop pretending."

Zhu Zhen strode over and said, "No matter how serious your injury is, you can still survive. We came to you because we actually want to discuss with you what to do. I'm afraid that brat Zhu Yunxuan won't let us go."

He has already called Zhu Xuan a brat.

There is no respect at all, no respect at all, and no appearance of elders.

Zhu Quan had no choice but to change his state and said helplessly: "Sometimes it is still necessary to pretend. At least it can let people outside know that I am seriously injured. There is no need for the two brothers to come to me."

When they came, he couldn't pretend anymore.

Maybe there will be some trouble.

"If we weren't worried, we wouldn't come to you." Zhu Xun said uneasily: "This matter can be big or small. If you say it is serious, it is very serious. If you say it is not serious, Zhu Yunxuan will definitely be concerned about it. I'm afraid Before our alliance takes action, he may take action against us.”

Zhu Quan shook his head and said: "You can rest assured that as long as my father is still alive, he will not take action. You should know very well that he creates an image of filial piety to the outside world and cannot do those unfilial things."

It sounds reasonable.

That's the thing.

If this is really the case, then they can put this concern aside for the time being.

"Brother Seventeen, tell me the truth. Do you plan to hand over all those military salaries? It's all money!"

Zhu Zhen asked with some envy.

However, they thought Zhu Quan was very courageous.

Embezzling military pay is a very serious matter. If you are not careful, it may cause the border troops to mutiny and bring great trouble. None of them dare to do this, but Zhu Quan dares.

"Since Zhu Yunxuan came to power, our military spending has become more and more stuck. Everything must go through the process and be done according to his requirements."

Zhu Quan explained helplessly: "If I don't deduct some money like this, how can I do big things in the future?"

To do big things, you cannot do without money.

Their private soldiers cannot be maintained without money.

Zhu Zhu and Zhu Zhen said that it was understandable that it was indeed necessary to embezzle, but they did not dare to do so, and they were not front-line vassal kings, so there was no reason to ask for more military pay. Once they embezzled, it would be easy to be found out.

Only Zhu Quan, who is on the front line, can do it.

"If I don't spit it out, I'm afraid I'll die."

Zhu Quan said helplessly: "Of course I'll spit it all out."

When he said this, he was unwilling to give up and felt very distressed. When the money came into his mouth, no one was willing to spit it out.

"It's all that Cao Tai!"

Zhu Quan thought about this and hated the Cao family with gnashing teeth, and asked: "Have Cao Tai's family been demoted to slavery? Cao Tai was skinned, but his family may not be. I will take revenge severely!" "

Zhu Zhen seemed to have found a way to relieve his hatred, and said coldly: "I will have someone investigate later. If found out, I will not let anyone from the Cao family go!"

Even if they are slaves and maids, their vassal king has many ways to kill several slaves.

There are also people who are willing to help them do this.

"I think it would be more satisfying to make them slaves."

Zhu Xi said calmly: "There is no need to kill them. Get them into your hands and torture them slowly. You can't live or die!"

"Fifth brother is still thoughtful!"

Zhu Quan hummed and said: "Brother Six, help me get one, preferably Cao Tai's daughter!"

The three of them are brothers, and they have a strong desire for revenge.

However, none of them knew that there was a Jin Yiwei lurking above the roof.

Normally when they meet, they are surrounded by their own people to prevent Jin Yiwei from getting close, but now they are very angry and have ignored the important point of letting people keep an eye on them outside, finally giving Jin Yiwei an opportunity to take advantage of them.

They quickly reported back to Jiang Wei what happened in Prince Ning's Mansion and the conversation between the three vassal princes.

After receiving this information, Jiang Wei did not dare to read it and handed it directly to Yan Guan, who then took it back to Zhu Xuan.

When I received this information, it was already the afternoon of that day.

"As expected, my three imperial uncles will still meet in private!"

Zhu Xuan didn't think there was anything wrong with their meeting, but after reading the conversation, he found them very interesting. (End of chapter)
